We've discussed this before," the Panthers coach said. "I went through and answered all your questions yesterday. I gave you all your information. In fact, I understood you called the league to make sure we do what we're supposed to.

"We follow the rules here. Don't question my integrity when it comes to these things. Understand that. I try to be as forthright as I can when I answer your questions and when I'm doing that, the least I could do is get the common courtesy that I'm being believed. I take it very seriously."

Rivera continued: "And it is not up to me to make those decisions and these calls. It's up to the doctors. Just so you understand that. I'm being very very upfront with this and very forward because it does bother me. I'm not the doctor. I'm not the one who makes these decisions. We have a protocol. We follow the protocol. We've had players stay out for, what, three, four weeks and at no point did we force that young man or onto the field because we believed him. So please, do not question me on this."

 

Way to go Ron!!!!!  Love his response...want to see the video.

Has to be about the dumbest I have heard in a while.  He needs to be reassigned.  He has burned his Panther bridge while standing on it.  I bet his hair gel exploded.

Voth thought the questions were acceptable
 

i do. RT @Lawson_LTN: @BlackBlueReview Well, they were perfectly acceptable questions, don't you think?

 

It wasn't that they were unacceptable, it was that he had answered everything yesterday and didn't want to go through it all again.  

They were perfectly acceptable when it was an issue, by asking about it again you're not just repeating the question (and being fuging annoying) but you trying to take any validity out of the answer that he gave previously.  He was trying to pry more information out of Rivera and big boss wasn't having it.

I fuging love Ron.  That is straight MAN style right there.  He is the type of person I strive to be everyday.  Be personable and treat everyone you meet with respect, but if someone crosses or tries to use you then bring wrath down upon them.

      Joint Practice - Jets

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.

      You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
